table saw

[Waleed Khalid Al Bardawil]

I want tips to make accurate table saw using of course circular saw

[Waleed Khalid Al Bardawil]

good job man 

it gives me a nice idea saving the place, but the base of saw will have wearing if we use the saw with metal. but really it was a nice.

  may be i will be more greedy if I ask you about making joiner by normal electric planer

The electric planer in the hand of an inexperienced user is good for producing enough wood shaving to cover the bottom of several rabbit hutches. Unless you are an expert, I reccommend you get a lot of practice in before you use it.

I do not want you to think I am talking down to you Waleed, I assume by your questions that you are fairly new to woodworking and I would hate to see you get hurt. Check around your family and friends for anyone with experience, visit their workshop and ask advise that you can see working There are many different types of saw blades for different materials and different ways of using the saw to cut them. It would be unfair to advise you one way and you lose a finger from the wrong advise.

Hello Waleed!

 

You want to use your circular saw to make cuts as accurate as a table saw?

 

I would say the one thing you definitely need is a straightedge. A long one for rip cuts and a short one for crosscuts. There are some that you can buy, but most can easily be built using a couple pieces of wood. Below is a link to making your own jigs for rip-cutting and cross-cutting.

This site has numerous links to making jigs for the circular saw. There is one crosscut jig I used all the time before I got a benchtop tablesaw.

Hi Gary - looked at that thing. Seems like you can buy a name brand, ie deWalt or such, dedicated track saw for about the same or less $$. To get one assembled to handle 8 ft (108") you're up to $350. Not saying it's a bad thing, just a lot more expensive than it looks at first blush.

Reading the OP's first and second posts, I get the distinct impression he is wanting to mount his circular saw and hand planer upside down on a table. Neither idea conjures up very nice images in my mind. I know several outfits came up with rigs several years ago to do just that with circ saw but you don't see those anymore. I suspect there would be some product liability concerns.

Bora clamps make a circular saw guide system. Haven't tried it but the idea is there. Also, again, get a good quality blade. You will get a much nicer finished edge. A friend of mine actually made a small table saw system out of a worm drive saw and a piece of laminated MDF. The saw clamped upside down on the bottom with the blade sticking up and he clamped it all to a couple of saw horses. He said it worked pretty well but I never saw him use it. A full length straight edge is still the cheapest and easiest.

No the spartan is only $105 maybe you would double to $200. Tracksaw $400 to 500 with same 54 inch connector which is same as $105 unit. Which is what I was going to start out with now on sale for 30% off.
